Not only does Dr. Amy Reinstadler talk very fast during appointments so she can rush out the door,…read morebut she doesn't even see you when you come back in to get stitches removed and discuss your options. I had a biopsy done to see if what I had was severe eczema, psoriasis, or something else. When I had returned for the results, she said the results were inconclusive and it could be either eczema or psoriasis... but still wanted to treat it with Dupixent injections (probably a company she gets kick-backs from for prescribing it). I was very disappointed that I had to get stitches for no answers as to what I was actually suffering from. She then suddenly decided to take another biopsy from 2 other parts of the rash on my body (WHICH IS WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE THE FIRST TIME INSTEAD OF WASTING EVERYONE'S TIME). When we came back in the second time to hear the results, it came back as eczema. At least we finally got an answer as to what we were actually dealing with (after 2 prior unnecessary appointments), but I did not appreciate all the time I had to waste taking off work to keep coming back to this doctor who only spends 5 minutes with her patients and accomplishes so little in each visit just to get more of your money. Patients also have to pay for parking so this was all a huge waste of time and money. I also had a cyst removed from my back which also required stitches, but the doctor did not put enough stitches in so it kept reopening! She only put 2 stitches in my back which was the exact same amount I had received for the small biopsy I had done, and it was half the size of the cyst removal incision, which didn't make any sense at all! When I had returned to have the stitches in my back removed, the nurse thought it didn't look very good, so she took a picture of it and left to show it to the doctor instead of the doctor just coming in herself. The nurse returned saying the doctor said it looked fine. It obviously did not look fine as it was not completely healed and had some yellow puss in it. The incision did not heal for a month or 2 after that, all because the doctor did not put enough stitches in to close it up. During this time, we were in the process of discussing my options of how to heal my eczema, but she required separate appointments to discuss that even though I was visibly suffering (severe, pain, redness, swelling, burning, and itch). She just kept sending her nurse messenger to relay messages back and forth instead of actually taking the time to care for her patient. I had to deal with this for about 2 months before I gave up on her, as her only solution was to prescribe Dupixent, which is a very harsh medicine. Why would I want to go with the extreme and inject myself with something if I don't absolutely have to? There are plenty of other options out there worth exploring, but she did not care to discuss any other options with me. The cherry on top of this horrible experience was she charged my HSA card 4 or 5 months after my last visit for no reason. I contacted my insurance and they said this was an unauthorized charge because she did not submit it within 90 days of my appointment, so luckily the charge was reversed and I got my hard-earned money back. But had I not discovered this fraudulent charge, the doctor would have happily kept my money. Do yourself a favor and go to a dermatologist who spends more than 5 minutes with you, cares about exploring different options for treatment, gives you the appropriate amount of stitches for your incision, doesn't make you pay for parking, and does not make you keep coming in for unproductive appointments.

I went to see an another dermatologist, who said that this doctor likely used too high of a setting and an aggressive, and unnecessary tool for minor superficial spots. She said the marks are permanent and I will need to try lasers. I am so upset that Reinstadler was so careless. Also, the new derm took her time and look at all the spots on my face closely. Not rushing, not jist zapping or scooping out things without any warning.

However, they don't check your insurance coverage ahead of time, so make sure to do your homework and confirm with your provider beforehand which I did. I went in for some suspicious moles, and Dr Saghari was very thorough, yet the exam was fairly quick. She wasn't pushy about unnecessary procedures and patiently took the time to answer all my questions. Dr Saghari is professional, friendly, and knowledgeable--not to mention, also very beautiful. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., and early detection is key. Be sure to get regular checkups.

She treated me like a member of her own family and did everything in her power to help me recover after years of struggling with psoriasis. I am truly grateful that, thanks to her expertise and dedication, I have finally regained my health. I also want to extend my heartfelt appreciation to her amazing team, especially Naomi, for her perseverance, support, and exceptional compassion. If I could give more than 5 stars--perhaps 100--I absolutely would, as they deserve the highest recognition. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

If you're looking for someone you can trust with your skin, I highly recommend her. She's truly one of a kind.

I probably should have written this review a very long time ago…read more I started seeing Dr. Shafa almost 20 years ago. During that time, she has been unflaggingly kind and generous with her time. She has seen me with extremely short notice, has offered me advice during off-hours, and has been incredibly supportive of me and my family. She is a thoughtful physician and a caring person. Although dermatology is her specialty, she has a sound grasp on several areas of medicine and offers thoughtful referrals as necessary. If you have a dermatology issue, I can't think of anyone I would recommend other than Dr. Shafa.

This review is for the derm studio not Dr. Forman (who to this day I have not met)…read more I was looking for a dermatologist because there was a red spot that showed up on my face & I couldn't figure out why. I tried urgent care first & they referred me to the Derm Studio. I called & made my first appointment, they are super busy & basically had to wait a month to be seen. I'm cool with waiting if its actually worth the wait. I had no idea this is a plastic surgery office. The first day I came in, there really wasn't a warm welcome or greeting from the front desk girls. I just got this vibe that was stuck up snooty, even though nothing of the like was ever said out loud. It seems to me if you're not there for plastic surgery then you're waste of time patient, that's how I felt. I was also disappointed that I never got to meet Dr. Forman herself, but instead dealt with this a physician assistant lol. She was nice but I would of liked to have an actual doctor instead. When I asked questions, I felt like the answers were generic or just glazed over & not explained thoroughly. I did end up getting prescription creams which did help the issue but if I were to see a dermatologist again I would seek help elsewhere. The other treatment I got here was for a tiny growth on my face. It was removed & I was told when the results are in, there would be a call from the office. Well, they never called & when I did call I spoke to the front desk & that was disappointing because I would of rather spoke to a doctor. I didn't like how that was handled. My situation wasn't serious but still seemed weird a front desk lady would relay information & not the actual doctor.
